Entangled with Two Rulers

I pushed the green vegetable around my plate once again. All these decadent restaurants had so much food that I didn't even know the names of, which blew my mind.

"Sorry, I'm just not that hungry," I told her, which was the truth.


"Still, you don't need to play with it!"


She had a point there. I gave her a curt nod and laid my fork down before clasping my hands together in my lap. My fingers itched to be doing something, but I ignored them.


"Do you not like edamame?" Aiden asked me. "I can order you something else."


"No, I'm sorry. I just don't have much of an appetite tonight," I said, feeling slightly guilty.


Aiden nodded as if in understanding and went back to conversing with my mom.
